So my 267 ping with the abime server surely will be enough for WinUAE play
The latency here occurs when the data jumps outside Argentina... Latency for the last argentinian server the route goes to is 17ms, from there it jumps to the US (I believe), and it takes about 200ms to do that! :P So I could never get a ping lower than 200.

No! Sometimes you hit the air but most times you were kicking baddy-ass perfectly! So it was pretty fine, and you had an almost 500ms ping time! It's more difficult with a game like KOF where you have to exactly time your movements, but a progressive beat'em up like The Punisher makes for a great online game

HA, maybe I could try it from the univversity where I work, the connection there is pretty fast, and sometimes I am there just doing nothing. I'll ping abime.net from there and see if it's good or not.

Originally posted by Drake1009 so will there actually be a release at some time in the overseeable future or were we just getting our hopes up?

Know that I haven't forgotten about it, it's constantly under development, when I'm not lurking about EAB and IRC, or sleeping, heh.

In it's current state, it has full control support (apart from CD32 pad), it's perfectly usable, some bugs, but still missing one very important feature, and that is config sharing (oh, and disk change support).

I want this next release to be effortless to use and less bugged than the first. Being realistic here, it's going to be at least another month before it is available for beta testing. It will be worth the wait though.
